Hollywood's Most Powerful Stylists: The Complete List

We've become huge fans of the Hollywood Reporter over the last few months, mostly due to Janice Min's excellent makeover of the trade publication. Staffer Merle Ginsberg navigates the LA fashion scene with an entertaining mix of gossip, insider news, and general knowledge that is not only rare for the West Coast, but rare for fashion writing in general.
So we were thrilled to see Ginsberg's list of the 25 most powerful stylists in Hollywood covering this week's issue. Rachel Zoe obviously ranks number one, with names like Nicole Chavez, Annabel Tollman, Brad Goreski, Leslie Fremar, and Kate Young rounding it out. See the full list below, and read the Zoe cover story here.

4. Jen RadeStyles: Angelina Jolie, Pink, Cher, Jenna Fischer
Why She's Powerful: Not only has Rade styled some of the biggest stars in the world, she's also the consummate professional. People like working with her.

Why She's Powerful: The women are photographed constantly, so they have to work with someone they really trust.

8. Elizabeth StewartStyles: Cate Blanchett, Amanda Seyfried, Jennifer Lawrence

11. Leith ClarkStyles: Michelle Williams, Keira Knightly
Why She's Powerful: The Lula editor isn't as well known for red carpet work as she is for her editorial and commercial spreads. But when you're dressing two of the most important actresses of their generation, who needs more clients?

12. Estee StanleyStyles: Jessica Biel, Lea Michelle, the Olsen Twins (well, at least she used to style the Olsen Twins)
Why She's Powerful: Stanley thinks editorially when she dresses her clients. Lea Michelle is a princess, so she dresses her like a princess. Biel is powerful, so she puts her sexy Versace.

13. L’Wren ScottStyles: Nicole Kidman
Why She's Powerful: The stylist-turned-designer's collection of dresses is beloved by her clients, and the clients of other stylists.

Stylists we were disappointed to see left off of the list: Kemal & Karla (who style the incredible Hailee Steinfeld), and Emily Current and Merritt Elliott (who style Emma Roberts and happen to be the founders/designers of Current Elliott)
